Constant Settings

Select Jumpmaster, select a jump type, and select Constant.

Percent Max.: Sets the jump range for all jump types. A setting less than 100% decreases the drift distance to the DIP, and a setting greater than 100% increases the drift distance. More experienced jumpmasters may want to use smaller numbers, and less experienced skydivers may want to use larger numbers.

Safety Factor: Sets the margin of error for a jump (HAHO only). Safety factors are usually integer values of two or greater, and are determined by the jumpmaster based on specifications for the jump.

K-Freefall: Sets the wind drag value for a parachute during freefall, based on the parachute canopy rating (HALO only). Each parachute should be labeled with a K value.

K-Open: Sets the wind drag value for an open parachute, based on the parachute canopy rating (HAHO and HALO). Each parachute should be labeled with a K value.

K-Static: Sets the wind drag value for a parachute during a static jump, based on the parachute canopy rating (Static only). Each parachute should be labeled with a K value.
